Auto Technician – Up to $200K/Year / No Weekends / Full Benefits

Automotive Technicians: Ever get that feeling on a Sunday night... that quiet dread creeping in before Monday even gets here?

You can't quite name it. It's not that the job's bad. It's not that the paycheck's terrible. It's just... something's off.

And you've gotten so good at ignoring it.

Now…

Maybe you're flagging solid hours right now. Maybe the paycheck's decent. But be honest with yourself for a second.

Are you actually getting handed the work that matches what you're capable of?

Or are you watching the "gravy work" go to whoever the boss likes best.

Is your shop actually busy enough, week after week, to keep your hands moving and your flag hours where they should be?

Do you feel like your boss has your back?

Or like you're just another name on the schedule.

Are you doing double duty as a mechanic and a therapist for shop drama that has nothing to do with fixing cars?

If any of that hit close to home... it's not you. It's the shop.

Next Auto Care has been a fixture in Highlands Ranch for over a decade. Same location. Same ownership… And it shows.

We move 700 cars a month, so the work never dries up. Tickets get dispatched based on what you're actually good at, not who's playing favorites.

Our GM is in the shop every single day, doing whatever it takes to keep techs moving instead of hiding in an office.

Our average tech has been with us seven years. That's not an accident. That's what happens when a shop is actually run right.

So, if you're an experienced who's tired of being content when you know you could be doing better... keep reading.

✓ 5-DAY WORK WEEK (NO WEEKENDS!) – We want your life to work inside the shop and outside of it. Recharge every weekend doing the things you love and spending time with your family.

✓ WE WILL KEEP YOU BUSY – We move 700 cars a month. Which means, you won't be sitting around wondering where your next ticket is coming from.

✓ FAIR DISPATCHING, NO PET TECHS – Work gets assigned based on your strengths, not who's the boss's favorite. If something's not your thing, we'll trade it out for something that plays to what you're good at.

✓ WE INVEST IN YOU – We reimburse ASE certifications and we'll pay for outside training if you want it. This isn't a dead-end job. It's a place to keep sharpening your skills.

✓ REAL EQUIPMENT, NO EXCUSES – AC and heat in the shop. Multiple scanners, two alignment racks, five A/C machines, and two containers of specialty tools out back. If a job needs a specific tool, it gets bought.

✓ NO DRAMA – Life's too short to work with wrench throwers and prima donnas. We don't tolerate them, so you won't have to either.

✓ YOU WILL ALWAYS KNOW WHERE YOU STAND – Weekly team meetings (with lunch on us), an open-door policy, and a GM who's on the floor talking with the team all day long. Nothing's hidden. Nothing's political.

✓ LONG-TERM EMPLOYMENT – Our average tech has been here seven years. This is a shop people stay at, not one they're constantly trying to escape.

✓ YOU WILL BE PART OF SOMETHING SPECIAL – We're active in the Highlands Ranch community: Thanksgiving food drives, the Angel Tree project, sponsoring local high school football and golf tournaments. We give back to the same community we serve.
